Prayer of the Heart

The Contemplative Tradition of the Christian East

George Maloney, S.J.

In this comprehensive guide to contemplative prayer, George Maloney, S.J. a leading exponent of the Eastern spiritual tradition in the decades after Vatican II, opens up this tradition of prayer-in particular the Jesus Prayer-to Western Christians in a clear and practical manner. Unmatched as a readable and complete guide to Eastern spirituality during its fifteen-year history of publication, it fills a void in the spirituality market for today's readers as well.
